Russia also attacked neighboring Ukraine with drones on Sunday night. There were impacts in the megacity of Dnipro and the large city of Zaporizhzhia in the southeast of Ukraine, which is not far from the front.
In Dnipro, an apartment block was damaged by the impact, said Governor Serhiy Lyssak during the night. According to him, the residents of the house were able to be rescued from the rubble largely unharmed.
According to Ukrainian sources, at least eleven people, including five children, died on Saturday as a result of Russian rocket fire in the Pokrovsk district in the Kiev-controlled part of the Donetsk region. In addition, eight people were injured, the region’s military governor, Vadym Filaschkin, said on his Telegram channel on Saturday. Accordingly, the bombardment was carried out using repurposed S-300 anti-aircraft missiles.
Two towns were hit, including the district town of Pokrovsk and Rivne. A rocket hit the house of a family of six, Filaschkin explained.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed his condolences to the relatives. He assured that the search and rescue work would continue and the injured would be cared for. Russia fired on purely civilian targets. “And Russia must feel – feel every time – that none of these attacks will end without consequences for the terrorist state,” he demanded.
